April 2015 News: Updates on my Wedding & Appreciating The NOW!

We must develop more of an appreciation for the things we take for granted—food to eat, a country that’s not at war, free education for all, etc. It is of prime importance to show our thanks for what we have. Writing out at least five things in your day that you appreciate every night before going to bed is an exercise that I propose in my coaching lessons. Why? You never know what’s around the corner.

And on that note, I wanted to share some moments of our wedding, and how much we appreciate our friends and family who attended the wedding and supported us. We were blessed and loved with over 250 guests and had a wonderful time… until 4am!!! The day was perfect with all its imperfections, we didn’t let them negatively affect our day and we had a blast. How many times do we get angry about minor details, for nothing? This was the BEST day of my life!!!

As you know me as really independent and strong, I had given up on finding my match, but I found Steve. Last summer, all my vacation plans fell apart and I finally decided to appreciate the NOW and stay home, but with the intention to one day go to each different beach in my neighborhood: Long Beach, Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, etc… and visit some friends and meet new friends…. The first night, I went to Forbidden City, to see my friend David Alcantar play in the band, but he was not there. I decided to stay there anyway, meet some new friends before my friend Guille finally arrived around 11:30pm. She also convinced the band Flyer to let me sing a song, and BAM! Steve started to speak with us, we closed the bar and finished the party on Jazz (his boat)… Steve invited for the next Thursday racing and on Catalina Island for the following week-end… and that is where everything started… We never know what is around the corner… and now we are married!

We must cultivate a strong mind and focus on the positive things in our life so that the negative thoughts do not pervade our very existence. Coaching is one of the key elements that helped me and was significant in changing my life from the negative to positive since 1995. Many moments in our lives can be so magnificent if we just take the time to appreciate them. That’s why it’s really, really important to APPRECIATE what we have right NOW!
